“Tea Party Patriots applauds President Trump for taking action to give American families relief from ObamaCare at a time when Senator McConnell and other so-called ‘leaders’ in his party have utterly failed to keep their biggest promise to the American people.

Dear Senator McConnell,
2017 has been a disappointing year for the millions of Americans who fully expected, and had every right to expect real change in Washington. Republicans were given full control of the federal government. They – you – have done nothing. Worse, it is painfully clear that you intend to do nothing because, as is most apparent, you had no intention of honoring your solemn commitments to the American people. You were not going to “drain the swamp.” You are the swamp.
You and the rest of your leadership team were given the majority because ...

They promised to end ...

Dear Mr. President,
One of the most important aspects of your presidential campaign was your willingness to engage on an area often neglected on the campaign trail – the importance of enforcing our trade agreements and of reevaluating, from time to time, each trade agreement to ensure it puts America first. Americans welcomed this message, and we applaud your commitment this year to reviewing trade policies through the “America First” lens.
As you know, Tea ...

“Promise made, promise broken. Once again, Senate Republican ‘leadership’ has demonstrated that its promises are meaningless.

When ObamaCare was enacted in 2010, Republicans ...
